Recently, because the female owners of Mercedes Benz cried about the rights protection incident, everyone focused on the car and brand. After all, the power of the masses is powerful. When something goes wrong, the official attitude and solutions are what people want. Just yesterday, a surveillance video of an underground garage came out on Weibo. In the video, a Tesla parked in the parking space suddenly ignited and burned several cars.
Spontaneous combustion of Shanghai Tesla
According to the exposure of Weibo netizens, a Tesla in Shanghai suddenly ignited in the basement. In response, Tesla said that after learning of the accident, the company immediately sent a team to the scene last night and is actively contacting relevant departments to verify the situation. Last night, a surveillance video of an underground garage suddenly spread on Weibo. In the video, a Tesla parked in the parking space suddenly ignited violently and burned many cars. Tesla said there were no casualties based on current information.
US media reported several burning accidents of Tesla
Previously, the US media reported several burning accidents of Tesla. In February 2019, a famous Tesla owner had a car accident while driving in Florida, causing the vehicle to be surrounded by fire and the owner died on the spot. The Tesla battery burned several times in the police parking lot one day after the accident.
In May 2018, a serious Tesla crash occurred in Florida, resulting in two deaths and one injury to three teenagers, and the car's battery re ignited twice. In March of the same year, a model x SUV crashed in mountain view, California, and its battery caught fire again in the parking lot five days later.
For the above accident, some analysts believe that Tesla's electric array is installed at the bottom of the vehicle. In order to highlight the controllability, it increases the possibility of the battery array being impacted, which makes it very easy for the cell or module to move, and the wires used in parallel and series connection will fall off and short circuit, causing a fire. At the same time, model s and model s are also easy to move X 18650 battery array in order to reduce weight and cost, but also the outermost insulation layer will be removed, which is also the source of spontaneous combustion during charging or after collision.
However, these combustion accidents are related to traffic accidents, not the phenomenon of parking spontaneous combustion in the video.
